I've run into a problem with keyword-regexp and matching spaces.
Kannel won't match spaces.  Though it doesn't appear to be documented
(clearly?) in the Kannel User's Guide, its mentioned a couple times on
this mailing list.

My question is: why?  Does Kannel throw out everything past the first
space and only feed the first word to the regexp engine?  I understand
that the sms-service feature is designed to facilitate single-keyword
matching, but still...this seems like an arbitrary limitation.

For any kind of semi-complex patterns, the user has to send the sms
off to a program that can handle regex's with spaces.  Its doable, but
its a pain.  I'd rather have all of my logic in the conf file and not
split between the conf file and some other scripts.



Thanks,
aaron
